AB - Away from the shining stars lies a universe that is usually hidden from our eyes: Black holes set the cosmos vibrating with gravitational waves, subatomic particles like neutrinos race through space with hellish energies. Today, for the first time in human history, these fundamentally different messengers from outer space can be observed and analysed for astronomical purposes. What does a supernova stellar explosion look like inside? What happens when two neutron stars collide? Neutrinos and gravitational waves reveal celestial objects in entirely new ways, augmenting the observations made using light and other electromagnetic radiation from outer space. Science finds itself at the dawn of a new form of stargazing: multi-messenger astronomy.
